Here and Now
Christian Bautista Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The kind most people dream
Themselves to be
Just as long as you and I
Are both aware
That life is what we make it to be
Then we won't care what others
Have to say
And show the way, oh baby
Refrain:
From this moment on it's
Me and you
The road of life ahead we'll journey
Through
And through it may be winding
We'll go right on reminding
That we both have eachother
Chorus:
Cheeish every moment
Darlin' hold me fast
Live each day as though it
Were last
The only time and place that
We are certain of
My love, is here and now
We had yesterday but now it's
Come and gone
Tomorrow still to come belongs to none
We had found the miracle of love today
If we try hard enough it's here to stay
Our rainbows end may just be rond the bend
I know we'll find it but until the oh baby
(repeat refrain and chorus)
(repeat chorus)
Coda:
Our love is here and now

They decide to prioritize their own happiness and not let the opinions of others affect their love. The refrain emphasizes the importance of being together through the ups and downs of life, while the chorus highlights the significance of each moment that they spend together.

You and I may never be the perfect pair
We may not be the ideal couple that most people dream of
The kind most people dream themselves to be
The kind of couple that people picture in their minds
Just as long as you and I are both aware
As long as we both know and understand
That life is what we make it to be
We have control over how we live our lives
Then we won't care what others have to say
Other people's opinions won't matter to us
Our love will guide us and show the way, oh baby
Our love will be our compass and lead us in the right direction
Cherish every moment, darlin' hold me fast
We should value each moment and hold onto each other tightly
Live each day as though it were last
We should live each day to the fullest as if it's our last
The only time and place that we are certain of
The only time and place that we can be sure of is now
My love, is here and now
Our love exists in the present moment
We had yesterday but now it's come and gone
We had yesterday but it's now in the past
Tomorrow still to come belongs to none
We cannot predict or control what will happen in the future
We had found the miracle of love today
We have discovered the wonder of love in the present
If we try hard enough it's here to stay
If we put in enough effort, our love will endure
Our rainbows end may just be rond the bend
Our happy ending may be just around the corner
I know we'll find it but until the oh baby
I'm confident that we'll discover it, but until then...
